Oh no! Not yet an other way of distributing mac files. I am unfourtainly forced to download StuffIt. Some person (Thats the most positive word I can think of) may use this NEW PackIt format. Please don't. StuffIt may be better than PackIt. It may save some bytes on the net. But it is not worth it! I (and probably you) already have a working solution how to download with PackIt ( Using PackIt (on MAC), unpit (on UNIX), etc. ). ----- Please Tony Jacobs tell the net NOT to use your maybe very good program. In spite of the first lines I don't want to offend you. I just don't want to have one more way to download programs. Roland Karlsson
